While speaking to the media, Kher said that Ayodhya is a sacred land and Lord Ram is present in every corner of this place. "This is Lord Ram's land and so every portion of it is pious. Today, I took a darshan of Ramlala and attended the court of Kanak Bihari ji. I appeal to the Sanatan Dharma people living across India and abroad to come to Ayodhya and seek blessings of Lord Ram," he said.

Kher said that along with praying for the wellbeing of all followers of Sanatan Dharma, he had also sought blessings for those who do not believe in Hindu religion.
